9.2 Direction of rotation
The direction of rotation is indicated by an arrow positioned near the power take-off (PTO) shaft. If you stand in
front of the pump head, the direction of rotation should be as in fig. 6.
The pump’s shaft (PTO) must not be rigidly connected to the motor unit. The following transmission types
are suggested:
• Flexible coupling
• Cardan coupling (follow the maximum working angles recommended by the Manufacturer)
9. PUMP INSTALLATION
9.1 Installation
The pump must be installed in a horizontal position using the drilled Ø .75 in (19 mm) feet. The base must be perfectly flat
and sufficiently rigid in order to avoid bending and misalignments on the pump/transmission coupling axis due to the torque
applied during operation.
The pump is equipped with two lifting eyebolts to facilitate installation, as shown in the following figure.
The eyebolts are designed for lifting the pump only, and they must never, under any circumstances,
be used to lift additional loads.
